Andrea lifted her head.  Her eyes lit up.  “You like it?”

Gloria nodded her approval.  “It sure did open up the space.” She spun around.  “Great job, Andrea.  It turned out beautifully.”

Andrea’s expression turned glum again.  “I planned to have a big get-together.  You know, a housewarming party and invite everyone, but now I have my parents coming.”

That didn’t seem like much of a problem to Gloria.  Her parents could help her out.  They would have a chance to meet the people that were in their daughter’s life.  A chance to meet Brian.

Gloria patted her hand.  “My dear.  I can’t wait to meet your parents.  I can’t wait for your party. It will all turn out.  You’ll see,” she said.

But you don’t know my parents,
Andrea thought to herself.

The end.
